Brett Erickson and Dr. Loren Miller both gave great presentations. Interesting how the genetics is now so accurate that individual fish can be mapped, and populations of fish, even in close proximity, can be distinguished.

Brett has a most impressive set of 40 pound plus muskie pictures from Lac Seul. All fat!

I would be out a morning or two if I still had the tag. Afternoons must be a sauna in a blind. We hunted in shorts and t-shirts in early May and were still hot when afternoon temps reached around 82 - 85 degrees.

Well wondering if anyone is going to be out in the heat for the last turkey season. I was out last night and just needed a nice strutter to get a bit closer. I moved the blind to his entry/exit point. He didn't want to follow the hen when she walked by my blind twice. He stayed on the high ground in the field. Hoping for better results.

Game 6 of Caps and Lightning was fun to watch, even though the lightning got shut out. Ove was a beast, really fun to watch him play like that.
Good for the Caps, I think they can nuetralize the speed of Vegas, they have some hard hitters on the team. Hopefully Ove can kiss the cup.

Well this has been a tough season so far with this odd weather. Late winter jump into 80+ degrees. It will be interesting to see what these next 4-5 days of 80's to 90's do to them?
Did find a few Morel's and some nice small tender Pheasant backs last time out.

For the 2018 Minnesota Fishing Opener we went up to Lake Vermilion in search of Walleyes. The morning started off slow for us so we changed up the tactics and it resulted in a livewell full of walleyes, a few Slot fish and a new Personal Best!
